Don't try to complete requests if their refs are broken and we've got
a warning, it's much better to drop them and potentially leaking than
double freeing.

The fast path in io_poll_check_events() is when we have only one
(i.e. master) reference. Move all verification, cancellations
checks, edge case handling and so on under a common if.

There is an interesting race condition of poll_refs which could result
in a NULL pointer dereference. The crash trace is like:

The root cause for this is a tiny overlooking in
io_poll_check_events() when cocurrently run with poll cancel routine
io_poll_cancel_req().

The interleaving to trigger use-after-free:

io_req_complete_failed()

By looking up the source code and communicating with Pavel, the
implementation of this atomic poll refs should continue the loop of
io_poll_check_events() just to avoid somewhere else to grab the
ownership. Therefore, this patch simply adds another AND operation to
make sure the loop will stop if it finds the poll_refs is exactly equal
to IO_POLL_CANCEL_FLAG. Since io_poll_cancel_req() grabs ownership and
will finally make its way to io_req_complete_failed(), the req will
be reclaimed as expected.

By looking up the source code and communicating with Pavel, the
implementation of this atomic poll refs should continue the loop of
io_poll_check_events() just to avoid somewhere else to grab the
ownership. Therefore, this patch simply adds another AND operation to
make sure the loop will stop if it finds the poll_refs is exactly equal
to IO_POLL_CANCEL_FLAG. Since io_poll_cancel_req() grabs ownership and
will finally make its way to io_req_complete_failed(), the req will
be reclaimed as expected.

poll_refs carry two functions, the first is ownership over the request.
The second is notifying the io_poll_check_events() that there was an
event but wake up couldn't grab the ownership, so io_poll_check_events()
should retry.

We want to make poll_refs more robust against overflows. Instead of
always incrementing it, which covers two purposes with one atomic, check
if poll_refs is elevated enough and if so set a retry flag without
attempts to grab ownership. The gap between the bias check and following
atomics may seem racy, but we don't need it to be strict. Moreover there
might only be maximum 4 parallel updates: by the first and the second
poll entries, __io_arm_poll_handler() and cancellation. From those four,
only poll wake ups may be executed multiple times, but they're protected
by a spin.

<title>io_uring: cmpxchg for poll arm refs release</title>

<content type='text'>
Replace atomically substracting the ownership reference at the end of
arming a poll with a cmpxchg. We try to release ownership by setting 0
assuming that poll_refs didn't change while we were arming. If it did
change, we keep the ownership and use it to queue a tw, which is fully
capable to process all events and (even tolerates spurious wake ups).

It's a bit more elegant as we reduce races b/w setting the cancellation
flag and getting refs with this release, and with that we don't have to
worry about any kinds of underflows. It's not the fastest path for
polling. The performance difference b/w cmpxchg and atomic dec is
usually negligible and it's not the fastest path.

<title>io_uring: add io_aux_cqe which allows deferred completion</title>

<id>9b8c54755a2b16d4f23c0ea184b75e2edf77d906</id>
<content type='text'>
Use the just introduced deferred post cqe completion state when possible
in io_aux_cqe. If not possible fallback to io_post_aux_cqe.

This introduces a complication because of allow_overflow. For deferred
completions we cannot know without locking the completion_lock if it will
overflow (and even if we locked it, another post could sneak in and cause
this cqe to be in overflow).
However since overflow protection is mostly a best effort defence in depth
to prevent infinite loops of CQEs for poll, just checking the overflow bit
is going to be good enough and will result in at most 16 (array size of
deferred cqes) overflows.

All failures happen under lock now, and can be deferred. To be consistent
when the failure has happened after some multishot cqe has been
deferred (and keep ordering), always defer failures.

To make this obvious at the caller (and to help prevent a future bug)
rename io_req_complete_failed to io_req_defer_failed.
